*P-value based on χ test for independence between risk factor and finding.
Each OR was calculated by univariate conditional logistic regression Multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independence of risk factors associated with cholelithiasis.
Hence, the aims of this study were to: 1) evaluate the performance of a range of lipids and apolipoproteins, as well as relevant ratios in identifying IR; 2) directly compare the traditional lipid ratios, apoB/apoA-I ratio, VAI, LAP, and TyG for strength and independence as risk factors for IR.
The Cox proportional hazard model was used for multivariate analysis to investigate the independence of the risk factors identified as significant factors after the univariate analysis.
The Cox proportional hazard model was used for multivariate analysis to investigate the independence of the risk factors identified as significant in the univariate analysis.
A further consideration is how the TCM sector can facilitate active ageing in older but relatively healthy people within the population, and contribute to the maintenance of their independence and addressing risk factors of NCD [ 48].
The case-only design has more power to assess gene-risk factor interactions than the case-control design, but its applicability depends on the independence of the genetic factor and the risk factor in the population.
We investigated whether increasing age, a known a risk factor for loss of independence, predicted a lower overall ADL score and found no association.
For the dichotomous MRSA outcome, an independence logistic regression model was developed to identify risk factor services.
The case-only design is statistically powerful for the investigation of interactions.[17], [18] The key assumption underpinning the design is independence in the population between the stratification variable and risk factor;[19] if violated, risk estimates may be biased.
